Priority over Priorities

The purpose of the Priority over Priorities blog is to help you learn how to prioritize your goals and feelings to succeed in life. One must learn to discern the most important item from a list of important items. This blog also has another unique element: you can send the author an email about any subject or personal issue you would like him to write about to help you work through it. Bear in mind that the blog will focus on motivation and success and will follow a “how-to” format. Your name will be kept anonymous.

Why are you not making it to the next level? You don't excel at anything and blame everyone else for your failures. However, you need to take stock of your own actions, and if you don’t take action, there will be consequences.

Use a mental camera to record each step you take during a 24-hour period and then analyze how you do things in your life. You might be surprised at how much time you waste in a day. When you add up all those seconds, imagine all the years you have wasted in your lifetime—you can never go back and salvage them. All you can do is make the most of the time you have right now.

The only person you have to prove anything to is yourself. You need to find the success you seek right now. That is an order! If you are tired of taking orders, become your own boss. You might not need a mentor, but you should want one. No one can be successful in isolation.

Whenever you fail to take the next step, consequences apply. Use time to your best advantage to help prevent stress and lead to the achievement of your dreams.
